“Quiet and unassuming gem”

Quiet little town location with good service, clean rooms in good repair and easy access to the Keys, Miami. Local town boasts history and the finest Mexican restaurants in southern Florida bar none.

We were happy with the accommodations. Room was adequate and clean. Location was great for our needs......close to the Everglades and close to the Keys. Breakfast was OK. Pool was rather chilly. Staff was efficient and friendly.

“Gateway to keys”

There is also an excellent little local restrauant in front of the hotel for frsh sea food & wine.The directions are little off, you can access the hotel easiy from US#1 the address is on the street west of highway which makes it harder to find than it needs to be. only had 2 washers & dryers for guests. had to plan your laundry. Tornado proof, so needed hard wire connection for interrnet, no WIFI

Area recommendations
Lots of shopping near by, close access to FL tollway right on Hwy 1,

“Stop here on your way to the Keys”

This was more than I expected from a Best Western. I occasionally spend time at higher class hotels and was pleasantly surprised at the amenities and service at this Best Western. Because it was a mid-class hotel, I had to hold back on giving it more 5 ratings. It wasn't a 5-star hotel, but it wasn't supposed to be. But it was very satisfying and exceeded my expectations.

Area recommendations
The Coral Castle just up the street is worth a visit. This is a great stopover on a trip down Rt. 1 to the Keys.

“One of the most comfortable experiences in our travels”

This was a very comfortable hotel. The breakfast was much more than what we expected. Morning breakfast was a very popular spot to meet other travellers. We met some interesting people from Britain and elsewhere. Our mattress was a bit soft but once I requested that it be turned, it was done promptly. The service provided by the staff was exemplary. We were offered excellent information about restaurants, shopping and sightseeing.

Area recommendations
Florida city is a reasonable place to stay if one wants to visit the Everglades. It is conveniently located with many amenities. There are other places nearby where there are more eating choices. The distances are not too much so it is easy to move about.
Must see
Fruit and Spice Park - one of a kind place. Very friendly staff - acres and acres of tropical fruit trees. Excellent restaurant next door. It was a very enjoyable visit.

“I'll be back”

Had a late arrival and check in was efficient. Room was clean, bright and cheery. Bed extremely comfortable. Good selection at the continental breakfast. Only complaint was that the breakfast area was busy and crowed with no place left to sit. Had to sit in lobby as they wouldn't allow food to be taken to your room. Check out was fast.
